Delicious mushrooms

Agaricus bisporus

My portobellos

 

Can a cat play fetch?

Absolutely yes, you bet!

They are so awesome!

 

Do you love hot pot?

That simmering little pot..

Best food in winter!

 

Laughing and clucking

Who took my Portuguese wine

Evasive Sentra

 

 

Spotted red dots itch

Legs look hit by chicken pox

Evil mosquitoes

A celebration

Pew bows, flowers in vases

Keys stolen by kids

 

So disappointing.

How can this keep happening?

Post racial state, ha!

 

Yes - - - -

Portuguese vessels

Are glorious even now

Just ask my liver

 

So bright in my eye

Just like wearing an orange

Where'd you get that shirt?

 

New friends, old faces

Can't wait to see you again

Let's not wait too long

 

It's beginning to

Look like Christmas. Oh, it's just

A frosty window

Under pressure...nah

Cool as cucumber in a

Vegetative state

 

Leaves are changing

Cooler temperature is here

Sure to bundle up

 

What the F is this!?

Blisters on my hands and toes

Hand foot mouth disease...

 

Brrrrr it's cold in here

There must be some toros in

the atmosphere [clap]

 

 

Arctic front is here

Mittens, hat, scarf, and layers

I love this! Bring it!

 

Never ending day.

Will I ever finish this?

I can't wait to sleep.

 

Sunny skies above

Blue and clear like a spring day

It's twenty degrees...

 

Ashen clouds marching

As the cold winds blow anew

Crows caw mournfully

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When it gets "cold" here,

It simply means that my drinks

No longer need ice

 

When northerners rant

About the lack of seasons,

"Haters gonna hate"

 

I turn the corner;

surprised osprey dives, shrieking,

clutching its dead fish

 

Before they found tea,

Did they drink boiled water

steeped with random plants?

Stared down, don't you run

I want to see you be brave

Let the words fall out

 

Ready for Christmas!

Too soon? Then, I'll take turkey

Keep holiday cheer.

 

Perfect balanced day

Right on time for my meeting

But one day early

 

Meow meow who's meowing?

Big cat Yoyo is starving...

Let's eat, my darling!

 

 

That blue and orange

How come so memorable?

My dearest Gators!

 

Danny and Mindy

The coolest couple I know

Tuesdays for the show

 

Chilly and windy

The cold frosty air seeps through

Arctic blast is here

 

It's true I hate cold

But the bite of a brisk wind

Makes cocoa sweeter

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Where does it all go

Farmers market, Trader Joes

I like to eat loads

 

It's fall-winter time

Daily temps swing high and low

Just make up your mind

 

One slice two shoulders

Peanut butter and jelly

Simply satisfied

 

St. Louis style ribs

Smokey, sweet, spicy, juicy

In perfect balance
